What you need to know


What to expect

At the start of the first lesson, the instructor will talk to you about your vehicle experience and ascertain your capabilities.  From here, your lessons and subsequent lessons will be structured around your progress and ability to practice in between lessons. 

We are a driving school, so don’t be alarmed if we are writing while you are driving, this is so we can refresh what was last learned and build on it during the coming lesson.

Remember: we are here to guide you, the more you practice what you have learned in the lesson the better you will get and the quicker you will learn, saving you time and money. 

Pick up points

  • The Square in Palmerston North outside the isite Visitor Information Centre.

  • The Square in Feilding outside MyFarm.

  • Collection from home can be arranged subject to our schedule and location.

    If outside the city boundary, additional costs may be applied.


Lesson Structure

The lesson follows a structured format:

  1. 10 minutes: Catch up on the previous lesson, discussing your driving experiences between sessions and identifying areas for improvement or practice.

  2. 40 minutes: Engage in practical exercises to reinforce existing skills, introduce new ones, and enhance your knowledge to become a confident and safe driver.

  3. 10 minutes: Debrief on the lesson, providing you with valuable pointers to practice.

When it's time to book your NZTA test, we will give you approximately 3-4 weeks' notice in advance. This allows us to find a suitable date and address any areas needing improvement. If we believe you aren't ready a week before the test, we will advise postponing it. We will never recommend a test unless we are confident in your abilities to pass.

As the test date approaches, we'll cover all possible driving scenarios you may encounter during the test. Mock tests will be conducted, providing feedback for focused practice.

Should you not pass the test on your first attempt following our recommendation, you'll receive a free post-fail lesson to work on any areas of concern.

Please note that if you choose to book the test without our recommendation, the above support does not apply.
